34. Lack of media attention IS the problem. I've been thinking about this for quite a while

and I believe this problem with the media has existed forever. Our Dems don't do outragious things! They just go to work & do their jobs. The media comes running with cameraman in tow when an argument breaks out o the Capital steps between to Congessmen. Theu make sure they get clips of the blowhard making ridiculous statements in a heari g or on the floor of Congress.

Do you see what I mean? It's jus t a replay of the old saying...IF IT BLEEDS IT LEADS.

I sure don't want the Dems to start saying & doing insane things just to get noticed, but they or we have to figure out some way to mke exciting & interesting news!
